Day 4- Taking a moment for work but only a moment

Yesterday, I posted about the need for one to take a break from work on the weekends.  As an educator it is important that we take a moment for ourselves and our families in order to focus on what is important to us beyond the school day.  I have hobbies, I have stuff to do, and I like to do things with other people.  If I worked all the time those things wouldn't be able to occur.  

For me, time to refresh is important.  (Click the link.) It should be for you as well.  I know that there are people that just can't turn it off.  It has to be all work all the time.  If you are one of those folks, check this out. 

So for one moment, one brief moment, take a deep breath and walk away from what you are doing.  Are you still reading?  Get up walk away and come back.

Did you know what to do with your time?  Did you do nothing?  Did you do something for yourself?  I hope you did.  Try to take a longer break later today and hopefully this weekend.  You will thank yourself.
